I saw and got a good picture of my first Egret of the year today. On 153 =
street west and Cedar. By Rainbow and across from a clinic. We use 153 =
street west a lot to cross Cedar and each for several years there has =
been an Egret in the little storm sewer by the street. He must find food =
there due to the amount of time he spends. I know if birds and are out =
in the cold and rain it sometimes looks miserable to us, but if they are =
well fed and healthy they are fine unless it's extreme conditions. But =
the Egret looked so miserable to me I couldn't help but to feel sorry =
for him. The little pond is still frozen. He was standing in the middle =
looking around, feathers wet and hanging so low they were touching the =
ice. As I drove away I noticed he had tucked one leg up under himself =
and I thought I saw a little tear, but maybe it was mine...

Glad to share the picture with anyone interested.
